Adopted By Harry Styles (Complete)

Chapter 57

Emma's pov

I have no clue where anyone is. I walk to ria's room. I knock on her door. "Come in" she says. I open the door. "Ria where is luke and Harry?" I ask her. "They went to nicks house" she tells me. "Oh lord" I say. "Ria we need to go get them" I say quickly. "What why" she says with a confuse look. "They could be in trouble"I say. Ria. "Well why don't we go" she says

Ria's POV:

I speed down through the house and into the garage where the car is parked. I can see that Paul is giving me a curious look and he yells at me, asking me where we're going. I don't tell him where we're going. I just tell him we'll be back in a little while.

After Emma and I are buckled in, we drive off towards Nick's house. It isn't that far away but it seems like forever. At the red-lights my fingers tap on the steering wheel as I am anxious to see what is happening. I can tell that Emma is thinking about Luke and Harry because she is crying. I don't want to see her cry like this. I've only known her for a while but she's really close to me.

We eventually reach Nick's place and I see Harry's car parked outside. We quickly get out of the car after I've parked it and follow the pathway up to the front door. Emma quickly knocks on the door but it just opens. Strange. We're not under suspicion for that long. Right there in the hallway, we see Luke and Harry, with Harry constantly staring at this one picture and Luke trying to talk to him and tell him to move so that they can get out of here. I can tell that Harry isn't hearing any of what Luke is saying.

Emma runs up to give Luke a hug and they have their little moment whilst I try to get Harry to stop.

"Harry!" I plead with him but he doesn't listen.

"Baby, please. We need to get out of here" I say as I tap on his shoulders. However he does not budge. I think of what to do. Why isn't he moving? I then get an idea. I get in the tight space in between Harry and the photograph and then wrap my arms around his neck to give him a kiss on the lips. It's as if he melts. He suddenly looks at me and kisses me back.

"I'm glad you're okay baby" I tell him and he just wraps his arms around me, pulling me into a hug.

"I love you" He says in between the kiss. We soon pull apart and we ask Harry why he was staring at the photograph. We are all looking at him intently as we await an answer.

"You see Henry. That kid. He used to be my childhood best friend. I remember all the things we did together, we were very close. Some people even mistook us for being brothers. It was all going fine until one day I just never saw Henry again. He stopped turning up to school. We even tried calling him but nothing happened. My mum and I even went to check what happened by going to his house but the neighbours said that the whole family just suddenly packed up and moved away a couple of days ago. I never heard from Henry again." He's crying by the end of it and I can't help but feel sad for him.

By this time we're all trying comfort Harry so nobody is paying attention to the surroundings. That is when it all starts going down hill again.

I'm about to move to give Harry a hug but I feel someone grab my waist and pull me in towards them as well as put something sharp to my throat. A knife. I scream and they all turn around and gasp, with Harry beginning to cry.

"Well well well what do we have here?" Nick evilly chuckles. Luke puts a protective arm around Emma's waist and I can see Harry's fists clench. On the inside I feel like I'm going to puke. I am so close to death right here. One wrong move and it all could be over. Suddenly, Harry charges towards Nick but Nick only steps back, dragging me along with him and also pressing the blade further into my neck so that some blood drips. It's not enough to kill me but it hurts... a lot.

"NOOOOOOO!!!!" Harry yells and steps back. Emma lets out whimpers as she cries into Luke's shoulder.

"Please leave her alone" Harry begs Nick, getting desperate now.

"How can I let her leave huh?" Nick coyly says, "The fun has only just begun!" he chuckles.

"Nick, what do you want. Please tell me. Just let her go. I am willing to give you anything!" Harry pleads with Nick.

"Hmmm how does $1 million dollars sound???" Nick answers, seeming pleased with himself. Harry only nods as tears stream down his face. He seems so vulnerable right now.

Harry's POV:

I nod at Nick. My insides are clenching right now. One wrong move and I could lose Ria forever. I can't lose her, I love her too much. I don't care what anybody makes of this right now. I just want to get her back here in my arms.

"But I want you to stay here and Emma and her stupid boyfriend can go get it." Nick orders us. We don't say a thing, only agree with him. Emma and Luke quickly run out to the car and I pray that whatever decision they make on how to get the money is responsible. Also I pray that they call the police but make sure to tell them all the details of the situation.

"Now now Harry. Why don't we play a game?" Nick asks me innocently but I know there is something sinister behind his words.

"It's called 'Watch her suffer'." He laughs and I feel like punching him. Ria whimpers as the knife is pressed further into her neck.

"I'm going to tie her up to a chair and if you make one move, you know what will happen." Nick adds. He sits Ria down onto a chair and ties her up with rope so that she can't move at all. He then comes to me and ties my legs together and hands behind my back so that I can't possibly move. I could've done something then but I have no idea what this sick man could do to me or Ria. I don't want the consequences of my actions to be given to Ria.

"Now I'm going to look at this clock. Every thirty seconds that pass, I will hurt her once so you better hope that your friends hurry back quickly" he stated and I could only give him a look filled with disgust. That sick minded bastard.

"Time starts now" he said, laughing as he stared at the clock. It seemed so quick but 30 seconds passed and I could feel my insides clench.

SLAP! I heard his hand whip across Ria's face. No, he couldn't do this. How could he torture her in such a way?

PUNCH!

KICK!

SLAP! That's all I heard for the entire time. I couldn't even look at Ria without crying. This is all my fault.

"Please Nick, leave her alone. Hurt me instead, please!" I begged him but he did not listen.

"But Harry don't you understand that I am hurting you more like this? This pain is far worse than that of me physically hurting you." So that's his reverse psychology. He's so sick.

It's as though time has slowed down but eventually Emma and Luke arrive back here and Nick finally stops his torture. It looks like Ria is unconscious now and I can't do anything to help her because I'm stuck in this stupid rope.

"Do you have the money?" Nick asks angrily. Luke nods, handing him and envelope which most likely contains a cheque.

"Good good good!" Nick adds, opening the envelope, checking if there was indeed something inside. Without saying another word, he simply walks out the door of the house, leaving us here puzzled.

"Don't worry the police are outside" Luke says and I nod. He quickly comes and unties the rope and once he is done I run over to Ria, setting her free and picking her up bridal style.

"We have to take her to the hospital, immediately" I say and without further ado we rush out and to the car. I just hope she'll be okay.
